...Blades
My blanket of blades
This bed I made
Bloodied by sins envisioned within
I wrap tightly
Nightly
Scars of the morning melancholy mood
No one sees as I barely make it through
Withdrawal as I don’t feel the blades digging in
Feeling naked under these long sleeves hiding my sin
Even these sleeves can’t hide blood seeping pleas
I languish in the pale warmth of sunset skies
Reflections of the sun across this blade
I draw upon my skin a serenade
Thoughts of desperation as I dream of someone I can’t save
My blade is my drug
My love
You can never take her from me
I’m in the solitude of sorrows, driven
My cuts can never be forgiven
